Cord.Knitted.Necklaces.

A few necklaces made from hand knitted cords.


The first was made from the leftover yarn after knitting a pair of socks.  I began french knitting to see how long it would be.  It was very long; so then I crocheted a chain with the cord using my hands instead of a hook.









The second is made from a knitted i-cord (using two double pointed needles).
 To begin you knit a large 'bead' and then again when the cord is long enough to finish.
These were my very first attempts at knitting beads, so I could use a bit more practice but overall am happy with it.

This second necklace I knitted from the pattern Gaucho's Lariat from Domiknitrix by Jennifer Stafford.
